I bet. Our family and some friends took a trip to Arizona last year in June. It was 105F all week, but I was only hot when directly in the sun. Otherwise, in the shade it wasn't bad at all compared to 90F and humid as all get out like it gets here in WI.

They're not lying. I just got done snow blowing for 2.5 hours. We've gotten probably 12" so far and it's still snowing. :/

I think the last time we got this much snow in one day here was 10+ years ago, though. So it's not like it's all that common. Luckily it was on a Friday, and as construction workers we decided to take the day off. With the temp dropping out on Sunday to below zero, a 5-day weekend is very possible. :)

Regards,
Nick
